Nandrolone Benefits

Nandrolone (19-nortestosterone) is an anabolic steroid. It is a unique drug because it does not sacrifice the quality of muscles over its anabolic property. Its non-conversion to estrogen makes it possible to form high caliber muscles. This compound prevents the process of water accumulation and fats storage in the muscle. Because of this attribute, the muscles formed are tighter, leaner and more solid. The absence of excess water and fats is an advantage since the body will not demonstrate compensatory mechanisms such as high blood pressure, rapid heartbeat and cholesterol deposits. Nandrolone is known to relieve muscle pain and speeds up the regeneration process of the muscles.

Nandrolone Side Effect

Because nandrolone is not broken down into DHT, the deleterious effects common to most anabolic steroids on the scalp, skin, and prostate are lessened to a degree; but is rather broken down to the much weaker androgen dihydronandrolone. The lack of alkylation on the 17α-carbon drastically reduces the drug's liver toxicity. Estrogenic effects resulting from reaction with aromatase are also reduced due to lessened enzyme interaction,but effects such as gynaecomastia and reduced libido still occur in larger doses because of other mechanisms. Other side-effects of abuse can include erectile dysfunction and cardiovascular damage, as well as several ailments resulting from the drug's effect of lowering levels of luteinizing hormone through negative feedback. Erectile dysfunction is attributed to the weaker action of dihydronandrolone in the penis since dihydrotestosterone is a known sexual modulator.
